MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) – Former St. Paul’s standout Jalyn Armour-Davis held his first annual football and STEAM camp Saturday at Bishop State Community College.
The free event was open to boys and girls ages 8 to 12. Participants learned football fundamentals and took part in hands-on STEAM activities. STEAM stands for science, technology, engineering, arts and math.
The goal of the camp was to combine sports and education and give local kids a free day of learning and teamwork.
Armour-Davis said his favorite part of the event was watching the kids respond to the curriculum.
“Seeing the kids smile when they did things that they didn’t think they would want to do,” Armour-Davis said. “I think a lot of kids, when they get here and they hear the mathematics and everything, it’s like, ‘oh, we just got out of school. And, you know, it doesn’t sound fun. I came to play football.’ And halfway through, you know, the session, we see smiles, we see energy, we see teamwork, we see the kids working with each other to get to an end goal and not just sports, to be doing that in the classroom as well. So, that’s, that was our main goal.”
Armour-Davis, a former St. Paul’s defensive back, played at Alabama from 2018 to 2021. He was selected in the fourth round of the NFL draft by the Baltimore Ravens and played for the Tennessee Titans last season before suffering a torn Achilles tendon.
